As CRO, Voss will bring the Amicus.io platform for DAF 2.0 to retail and wholesale financial institutions, including banking, advisory, asset and wealth management, registered investment advisers (RIAs), and institutional custodian clients, to enable charitable giving at scale. His decision to join Amicus.io speaks to the tremendous potential of the DAF category, which has seen an 81 percent increase in contributions to DAFs in the last five years, totaling $38.81 B in 2019 – with $141.95B in assets under management, according to the 2020 Donor-Advised Funds Report from the National Philanthropic Trust (NPT)1. Amicus.io predicts the DAF market will reach $1 trillion in assets within 10 years.
Voss shares Amicus.io’s dedication to giving back. He has committed significant time to volunteering, as a Big Brother with Big Brothers Big Sisters, as a cycling coach for the Special Olympics and serving on multiple non-profit boards and as a fundraiser for groups such as Bright Blessings USA, which serves homeless and impoverished children in the Greater Charlotte area.

Amicus.io DAF 2.0 Charitable Giving Platform
Historically, donor-advised funds have only been targeted to high net worth individuals through private banks and wealth management firms. As the DAF becomes an increasingly popular option for strategic giving among individuals, and as organizations of all types enter the charitable giving space, Amicus.io offers a cost-effective plug and play platform to democratize access to branded, DAF-based solutions. The Amicus.io platform for DAF 2.0 lets organizations offer more customers a convenient, robust and deeply gratifying charitable giving experience.
